Bomber, can your spirit swig by and pick mine up.

 

It's a bit far to go to give you a hand Neil, if i was closer and not working i'de be there to lend a hand, i love knocking shit down, i'de even give you a hand with the new shed.

 

Happy demolition days guys & gals and don't forget.

many thanks to all who turned up today!
your help was greatly appreciated by both neil and myself
shed is down or should i say double double garage is down!
can't do much now other than to wait for the tree loppers
to remove the 5 ton of tree that now sits on what was the roof
of that f'n big shed
what a f'n big tree as well!
sincerely a great effort by all!!!
somehow i was appointed safety officer.doh!
stopped for a while as someone suggested explosive charges
to finish it off!
may have been me!
dattoman was quick to point out that bomber watson was not
available on the day,apparently he likes that sort of thing!
so in the end it was brought down to ground level
with the help of a trusty sledge hammer
vern cut the slots in the supports and steve and neil weakened
the structure with myself wielding the final blow
lucky i was the safety officer
or lucky to escaped uninjured!
wow
thanks to vicky for the excellent lunch
and to neil for the pure blondes!
last time i had one of those i married it and got myself in lotsa trouble
cheers

All the way mate, still sitting on top of the shed, and she's cracking away as the tree is taking the weight of its own branches.

Good day. Good progress. Limited beer drinking returns fantastic results.

 

Ready for round 2.
